a visit from Joe

 
 
 
Joe came to visit for at the beginning of February. The boys enjoyed seeing him and Joe got to help take care of them at Heritage Christian while Andy worked. Joe and Andy also got to hang out together after the boys were in bed (probably the most enjoyable part of the visit for Joe). It was great seeing Joe-I'm just sorry my classes/work got in the way of seeing him more.

look-a-likes

These look-a-like meters are a hoot! I found the site online (you can link to it from the bottom of one of the meters), and it was surprisingly easy-even for someone as tech-impaired as I-to operate. And eveyone says the boys look like Andy...

Christmas photos

I think I figured out how to link this photo to a web album. You should be able to click on the photo of the boys and it should take you to the entire photo album. These are our photos from Christmas in Illinois and some pictures from January. Enjoy!

a new school for Marcus

I just wanted to let everyone know that Marcus got into Heritage Christian for next year. He will be in the afternoon pre-K class. Even though Marcus will "graduate" from preschool this spring, his birthday is after the cut-off date to enter kindergarten. So, Marcus will start out in the pre-K class, and the teachers will provide enrichment activites as needed to challenge him. Marcus got this shirt after his interview on Monday and has worn it 3 times since then!

Cale's Christmas song

In December, Marcus and Cale had a Christmas/winter program at their preschool. It was fun hearing them sing their songs around the house. I hope you enjoy this video of Cale. It's to the tune of Jingle Bells, but the words include "Santa Claus is coming to town".
